3.4 GPRS Connection
3.4.1 Overview
GPRS is a packet-switched technology, which means that multiple users share the same transmission channel. In
addition, GPRS transmits only when there is outgoing data. This means that the available bandwidth can be
dedicated solely to data communication when needed. In general, a GPRS network can be viewed as a special IP
network that offers IP connectivity to IP terminals. Devices such as PCs, embedded computers, and PLCs that are
PPP-enabled can be easily connected to the IP network and the Internet.

The modem can use Windows DUN (Dial-up Networking) to provide the Internet access through the GPRS mobile
network. Instructions are described in the following chapters.
